Fit Villages

Fit Villages is a well-established and popular project that makes a real difference to local communities by bringing people together to socialise, have fun and become more active.

The project, which is run by Suffolk Sport and is supported by the National Lottery Community Fund, helps villages in rural locations to set up physical activity sessions by using village facilities such as community centres, village halls, libraries and playing fields. The project has already helped many villages across Suffolk to set up activities such as Pilates, Yoga, Table Tennis, Nordic Walking, Zumba, Badminton, Keep Fit, Walking Football and many more!

As the project continues to grow we are always looking for new villages to get involved. Would you like to see one of the above activities, or perhaps something like New Age Kurling come to your village? If so, please get in touch - we would love to hear from you!

If you are interested in starting up an activity in your local village, please complete the enquiry form below.
